You know Donald Trump is feeling pretty threatened right now. Not only does he have Robert Mueller and Stormy Daniels to worry about, but James Comey’s book comes out on Tuesday.
Trump and the Republican National Committee are doing their best to discredit the former FBI Director, and this morning’s attacks by the president on Twitter are just his latest efforts to do this.
But as usual whenever Trump takes to Twitter he is more likely to communicate that he is losing touch with reality than he is to communicate anything meaningful about Comey or anything else.
To prove this point we are showing below Trump’s Sunday morning tweets.
Worst FBI Director in history?
“Slippery James Comey, a man who always ends up badly and out of whack (he is not smart!), will go down as the WORST FBI Director in history, by far!”

Still mad about the FBI raid on his lawyer Michael Cohen’s office, and also showing his ignorance about the scope of the attorney-client privilege.
“Attorney Client privilege is now a thing of the past. I have many (too many!) lawyers and they are probably wondering when their offices, and even homes, are going to be raided with everything, including their phones and computers, taken. All lawyers are deflated and concerned!”

Trump is calling Comey a liar and trying to undercut the veracity of Comey’s contemporaneous memos of his conversations with the president.
“I never asked Comey for Personal Loyalty. I hardly even knew this guy. Just another of his many lies. His “memos” are self serving and FAKE!”

After harsh criticism he’s now defending his use of the George W. Bush phrase ‘Mission Accomplished.’
“The Syrian raid was so perfectly carried out, with such precision, that the only way the Fake News Media could demean was by my use of the term “Mission Accomplished.” I knew they would seize on this but felt it is such a great Military term, it should be brought back. Use often!”

Trump is still obsessed with the Clintons, including Wild Bill.
“Comey throws AG Lynch “under the bus!” Why can’t we all find out what happened on the tarmac in the back of the plane with Wild Bill and Lynch? Was she promised a Supreme Court seat, or AG, in order to lay off Hillary. No golf and grandkids talk (give us all a break)!””

He’s also threatening Comey with jailtime for releasing classified information, which is both crazy and wrong.
“The big questions in Comey’s badly reviewed book aren’t answered like, how come he gave up Classified Information (jail), why did he lie to Congress (jail), why did the DNC refuse to give Server to the FBI (why didn’t they TAKE it), why the phony memos, McCabe’s $700,000 & more?”

Here is a totally crazy tweet about Comey and Hillary’s emails.
“Unbelievably, James Comey states that Polls, where Crooked Hillary was leading, were a factor in the handling (stupidly) of the Clinton Email probe. In other words, he was making decisions based on the fact that he thought she was going to win, and he wanted a job. Slimeball!”

This is the earlier ‘Mission Accomplished’ tweet which was a totally ridiculous thing so say about Syria after one bombing raid. The situation there has not changed at all, and nothing has been accomplished.
“A perfectly executed strike last night. Thank you to France and the United Kingdom for their wisdom and the power of their fine Military. Could not have had a better result. Mission Accomplished!”

Here is another earlier tweet about McCabe, calling him and Comey “thieves and lowlifes.” He’s got his facts all wrong again too.
DOJ just issued the McCabe report – which is a total disaster. He LIED! LIED! LIED! McCabe was totally controlled by Comey – McCabe is Comey!! No collusion, all made up by this den of thieves and lowlifes!

Comey’s book hasn’t even been released yet and already it is driving Trump crazy. He may really go off the rails as Comey continues his media blitz in the coming weeks. If he decides to start bombing other countries, Heaven help us. Let’s hope he just keeps venting his anger through Twitter and not by attacking Iran or North Korea.
